I've been coming here since I was 7, 8 years old. I'm now 62. This rest/resort area for the military has ALWAYS been excellent in every way possible, in my opinion. It has changed, but the changes (with the exception of the loss of Pine Camp) have all been good. I really do appreciate that it is for military, veterans, our dependants & our ilk - it's always like being around family, and "at home" if you're a military person. The Marina is, I hear, excellent, and the fishing as good as it gets around much of the lake. Playgrounds are VERY nice & very modern in some of the areas. While the Beach area *used* to be "all sand" with a dock way off in the water, it is still nice, though the area underwater is silty clay rock. You might want to wear some shoes for wading, especially if you're a tenderfoot. (I am.) I am also a fan of the beach area, soooo . . . You can find a nice set of pavilions there, plus a somewhat limited concession, plus gobs of picnic tables. A great place to relax, celebrate, hold a quiet party (be respectful of other guests.) There USED to be changing rooms, but they appear to be gone; however, there are gender assigned bathrooms. PLENTY of trash cans, so hey! - use 'em. It's a nice place to be. Picnic areas and camping grounds abound, and they are all well serviced & taken care of. There is a large "Conference Center" which can also be rented for parties, official events, and WEDDINGS. :-D I know THAT because my daughter got married there! :-) It is very pretty with nicely groomed grounds, and very well taken care of. There are a lot more amenities, activities, rentals, etc. that we, the military personnel (and their dependants!) can use - a nice place to get AWAY from the pressures of military life, spousal deployment (especially if you've got kids! Like my mother did, LOL!) - or away from post for a break from military life around folks who've lived the life you have, if you've been in, or around, the military. A very relaxing & restful place - or one for excitement if you're into boating, fishing, camping & all that.
